410PT3.EXE Installation Instructions. =========================================================================== Section 1 Installing Patches on a Native NetWare Server. Section 2 Installing Patches on a NetWare of OS/2 Server. Section 3 Installing Patches on a NetWare SFT III Server. ___________________________________________________________________________ Novell has provided an installation script to be used with INSTALL.NLM "Product Options". However it is still possible to manually copy the patches to the DOS partition.. C:\NWSERVER\PATCHES.. This script file can be run from the A: drive on the server or though RCONSOLE. NOTE: If using RCONSOLE Press to specify local A: drive. PM410 has the following enhancements: - "PMLOAD". PMLOAD will scan a specified directory and auto load ALL patches in the directory.. EXAMPLE: PMLOAD C:\NWSERVER\PATCHES\NATIVE\START - "PATCHES" console command has been enhanced. Patches are displayed alphabetically. Total number of Patches are at the bottom of the list. - "UNLOAD PM410" will unload ALL patches as well. ___________________________________________________________________________ Note for NetFRAME customers: Because of NetFRAMEs' unique architecture "Product Options" Install can not copy the patches to the boot drive. Use the following RCONSOLE method to copy the patches to the boot drive. 1) Unzip the patch file to any directory. 2) Run RCONSOLE and connect to the NetFRAME server that you want to update. 3) Use ALT-F1 to bring up the RCONSOLE Menu. 4) Select the "Transfer Files To Server" option. 5) For the Source path, enter the complete DOS path, for example f:\patch\native\start and press enter. 6) For the Destination path, enter C: and press enter. RCONSOLE should then copy all the files located in the source directory. After that completes add the following lines to the STARTUP.NCF: LOAD PM410 PMLOAD C:\ Remove all other load statements for PM410.NLM and patches. ___________________________________________________________________________ Note for AS400 customers: Because of AS400's unique architecture "Product Options" Install can not copy the patches to the boot drive. Use the following RCONSOLE method to copy the patches to the boot drive. 1) Unzip the patch file to any directory. 2) Run RCONSOLE and connect to the NetFRAME server that you want to update. 3) Use ALT-F1 to bring up the RCONSOLE Menu. 4) Select the "Transfer Files To Server" option. 5) For the Source path, enter the complete DOS path, for example f:\patch\native\start and press enter. 6) For the Destination path, enter E: and press enter. NOTE: Drive E: is a READ-WRITE DRIVE, Drive F: is a READ-ONLY DRIVE. RCONSOLE should then copy all the files located in the source directory. After that completes add the following lines to the STARTUP.NCF: LOAD PM410 PMLOAD C:\ Remove all other load statements for PM410.NLM and patches. ___________________________________________________________________________ Issue: When selecting "PRODUCT OPTIONS" option in install, Screen to copy file appears instead of the "PRODUCT OPTIONS" screen. (Copy Files Option, SCREEN) ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | | NetWare files will be installed from path: | | | | NW410:\NW410\INSTALL\ENGLISH\ | | | | If you are installing from CD-ROM or a network directory, verify | | that the above path corresponds to the source directory where the | | NetWare server installation files are located. On CD-ROM, this | | will be path :\NW410\INSTALL\. | | | | Press to specify a different path; | | Press to continue. | | | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Solution: Copy the following files from the NetWare CD: NETMAIN.ILS, NETMAIN.ICS, LANGFS.ILS to C:\NWSERVER.
